At a local junk shop. Any ideas?

We are going past the show tomorrow to attend the first day of the huge Carlisle Mopar show. We might swing back in on the way home to see the swap meet. Can anyone comment on how many vendors were set up today(Thursday)? Of course, we’ll be back Saturday morning for the show. Thanks.

A little known fact: all Yugo’s had a rear window defroster. (Hand warmer)

Ok, I am Fairly sure this is a ‘39 Buick headlight. But it’s front is flat on one side. Saw a ‘39 Buick st a show today- headlights were perfectly round. Was there a model that used this strange shape? Is the (missing) lens also squared off??? Thanks!

The emblem has been listed on eBay. I will end the listing and sell it to an AACA member at a reduced price. Please send me a pm if you are interested. Please don’t delay, the listing is a Buy it now. SOLD

I have no clue, Any help appreciated!

Thanks.

I assume it’s a radiator badge? Anyone know the year? Thanks!

Nice grille center section. Driver quality chrome with fine pits. Emblem has some color loss. Gauge set with Nice speedometer. Other gauges need some restoration. Defroster fan runs but needs new wire or repair the wire wrap. Take the entire lot for $150 plus $25 shipping or inquire about individual pieces. Send PM to hold. PayPal or your check ok.

This Saturday, May 12, the Shenandoah Region hosts its annual car show and swap meet, its 60th year- in Winchester, VA. Saying the weather has been unkind over the past decade or so seems a tremendous understatement. Many droughts have been averted by this event. Right now, the forecast looks good. Plan to be in Winchester this Saturday for this event! Celebrate the great old cars and the nice warm sunshine.

Nice original piece. Great chrome. Reddish-brown paint. Minor paint loss. $50 includes free delivery anywhere in the US.

We arrived early Saturday morning and the parts vendors were already in place with their parts displayed. After spending an hour or so walking thru the flea market, and making several nice buys, we enjoyed the Porsche parking area and the small show field. Nice weather, great event.

Thanks for the great pictures. I was there all day Wednesday, briefly Thursday morning; and Saturday afternoon- but never made it to the Car Corrall. The crowd on Saturday was the largest I’ve seen in years (see the picture). Perhaps the strange weather on Thursday contributed to that. Great start to another season of Carlisle events.

Saturday’s nice weather brought out a large crowd at Carlisle. My son and I attended the Porsche swap meet at Hershey and then dropped in at Carlisle at about 10am. There was actually a traffic jam on Route 11. Perhaps the chilly start to the weekend kept folks at home until the low 50’s brought them out. We bought a headlight for a ‘46 Chevy truck at the Porsche gathering; and a bunch of Karmann Ghia parts at Carlisle. Go figure!

Attended the first day (Wednesday) of 2018 Spring Carlisle. Weather was a bit brisk at 8am, warming to a balmy 53 by 2pm. Wednesday is setup day and many vendors are yet to arrive; but there was plenty to see. A surprising array of antique parts for sale including many pre-war selections. Scattered among the flea market are several AACA award winning cars now for sale. Thursday’s weather may take a step back but Friday looks promising. Check out the view from Mount Carlisle.

Mirrors, mirrors! Kinda Art-Deco. Unique shape. No casting marks visible. Original, or period aftermarket? And ideas?

Careful, he has......connections.

Sorry if that made you form a terrible visual. Actually, our space confirmation arrived here in Central Maryland during a little snow shower. It WILL warm up by October, right?

Thursday and Friday were beautiful days at the AutoFair. The Hornets Nest Region did a great job as usual. There are many changes underway at the Speedway and many swap meet spaces were displaced as a result, The Green field was especially full of new vendors. Inside the track, a rat rod drifting track lent its own soundtrack to the event. My wife came along this year and performed flawlessly as a parts mule! She’s pictured below with one of our many great buys. She was richly rewarded with a relaxing dip in our hotel’s heated pool and spa; and dinner at a few if Charlotte’s many fine restaurants. The rain chased us home on Saturday morning and no doubt put a damper on the car show. That’s Spring in the Carolinas.

No part number. It may be from 1939. Thanks!

About 3.5 inches in diameter. Nickel/chrome retainer screws on. Has a red reflector on the back. My guess would be 1925-1933. Any ideas?

Thanks. The dude should have been my clue!

The piece itself is cast metal. The logo guy looks like a Viking. Buick? Late 40’s? Cover over ???? Thanks!

Another great swap meet compliments of the Chesapeake Region. Bright sunshine and temps just above freezing made you happy the wind was minimal. All the buildings were full and the outside field as well. We came home with a dozen or so gems. As usual, the Region presented an impressive array of lunch items- highlighted by the world-famous ham and bean soup- served up by the cook herself! Much the same crowd will gather in two weeks for the 2-day Sugarloaf Region event at the Carroll County Ag Center in Westminster- March 23-24. Come out and join the fun!
